Selection for the improvement of maize yield under moisture deficits

Throughout the lowland humid tropics, unpredictable periods of non-protracted drought are responsible for significant reductions in maize (Zea mays L.) yield, and losses may be disastrously large if drought coincides with the period around flowering. This study was conducted to develop and evaluate...
